Show Notes

In this episode of Vistage LIVE, host Stephanie Christopher is joined by Dr Chris Stevenson — a transformational leader with over 25 years of global executive experience and a doctorate in strategic decision-making. Chris has led company turnarounds across 12 countries and now mentors CEOs, helping them navigate complexity, make smarter choices, and unlock transformational growth.

Chris unpacks why so many boards and leadership teams fall into the trap of suboptimal decisions, how politics inside organisations can derail strategy, and why diversity of thought is vital to overcoming blind spots. He also shares his simple markers for identifying whether decision-making is strong or flawed — and offers practical insights CEOs can apply immediately to sharpen focus, drive innovation, and lead with greater confidence.
